Zhongfu Garden Huaining Main Store is located near the Huaining Street exit of the 228 Peace Park. This restaurant is famous for its Jinbing (a type of flatbread).

According to the menu at Zhongfu Garden Huaining Main Store, the origin and characteristics of Jinbing are as follows:

Jinbing is a snack from northern Chinese cuisine, and it is one of the traditional staple foods of the northern people. It is usually sold by weight, hence the name Jinbing. The unique feature of Jinbing is its special preparation technique, which results in a chewy, thin, and crispy flavor. It is different from hard pancakes and not the typical runbing (a type of soft pancake). Since Jinbing itself is not seasoned, the filling of vegetables best showcases the characteristics of both the pancake and the vegetables, appropriately blending their flavors, especially when paired with Beijing-style sauce and shredded meat or mixed vegetables, resulting in a delightful taste and texture.

The two of us went twice and ordered two Jinbing each time. We also ordered three dishes and one (three fresh) soup each time.
The vegetable fillings for Jinbing were: the first time: 1, 2, 3. The vegetable fillings for Jinbing were: the second time: 1, 5, 6.

(1) Dried Beef Shreds: Ordered both times. It was incredibly tasty even on its own, not wrapped in a pancake. The beef shreds and dried tofu are cut very finely, making it irresistible.
(2) Beijing-Style Pork Shreds.
(3) Stir-fried Spicy Chicken: A bit on the spicy side, but the chicken with a spicy flavor wrapped in Jinbing is very delicious.
(4) Three Fresh Soup: Ordered both times. Three fresh ingredients = pork shreds, shrimp, and sea cucumber, plus ginger and scallions, creating a rich flavor.
(5) Mixed Vegetable Dumplings (vegetarian): Includes eggs, dried tofu, and bean sprouts.
(6) Shrimp and Egg Stir-fry: Includes eggs, shrimp, and scallions.

We had two satisfying lunches and would definitely go again.

I heard that this is a time-honored Beijing restaurant next to 228 Park. Looking at the name of the restaurant, you can probably guess that the signature is catnip cakes. There is also a shop assistant making catty pancakes on the spot in the window. People passing by can clearly see it.

There are not many seats on the first floor, but it looks like there is room on the second floor. When I went to buy fried rice at noon on weekdays, I found that there were only two tables on the first floor. If you want to dine in at noon on weekdays, it seems that you don’t need to make a reservation.

Pork shredded fried rice $120
My first impression when I saw the fried rice was that it was very similar to Din Tai Fung style fried rice. It was white in color and didn’t seem to have any soy sauce (not even added?). When I saw this white fried rice, I couldn’t help but worry that it would be too bland and tasteless. And it looks like it’s just a few things like shredded pork, eggs, and chopped green onions.

But after I actually took it into my mouth, I thought it was quite delicious. It had a lot of flavor and a good salty aroma (but some of the bites were very salty, maybe because I accidentally didn’t stir-fry the salt). I would like to buy it again in the future. fried rice

If I really want to talk about the shortcomings, it should be that it is a little oily and the portion is a bit small. I think I am a girl with a normal food intake, but I feel only eighty percent full after eating. For this price, the CP value is medium.

I had a meal at Zhongfuyuan with my colleagues a long time ago. At that time, I felt that the clerk was quite dominant when ordering food (it felt like a forced sale?), so I never ate here again; this time I felt that the fried rice was delicious. Very good, I will buy it again next time!

I also want to try the signature cake~
(Looks like thin scallion pancakes or pancakes)
